Mr Pentax Guy,

It really depends on what you photograph.  You don't have anything
really wide or really long at the moment, so you should go for the end
you need more often.

That said, what I would buy is the 20-35 (except for the fact I already
own one).  I have not used another wide angle lens since I bought it
and it lives permanently in my camera bag with my FA50 f1.4 and my
FA100 f2.8 macro.  The longest lens I own is a 70-210 zoom which gets
sporadic workouts, but I wouldn't go out without my 20-35.  It's just
too useful.
